LED Retrofitting in Polk County & Central Florida

Are your old fluorescent or incandescent lights driving up power bills, flickering at the worst times, or leaving parts of your home dim and dated? Watts Air Conditioning, Plumbing & Electrical has served Central Florida since 1979, and we help homeowners upgrade aging fixtures with LED retrofit services that improve light quality and cut waste.

Heat and year-round system use already put enough strain on monthly utility costs. Swapping outdated lighting for energy-efficient LEDs is a practical upgrade for homeowners who want better performance without a full rewiring project.

If you’re ready for cleaner, brighter, more efficient lighting, make the switch. Upgrade your home’s lighting to LEDs today with the Watts electrical pros.

Benefits Of LED Retrofit Services

Old light fixtures can waste energy, create uneven lighting, and need frequent bulb changes. LED retrofits solve those problems by replacing outdated incandescent or fluorescent components with efficient LED technology while keeping the project focused and manageable.

Many homeowners ask if a retrofit is really worth it compared to waiting until a fixture fails. In most cases, the answer comes down to energy use, lamp life, fixture condition, and how often you’re already dealing with buzzing ballasts, dead bulbs, or rooms that never feel bright enough.

  • Lower energy use: LEDs use less electricity than older incandescent and fluorescent lighting, which can help reduce monthly utility costs.
  • Better light output: Retrofits can improve brightness, color consistency, and coverage in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, hallways, and outdoor areas.
  • Less maintenance: LED lamps and retrofit kits typically last much longer, so you’re not constantly replacing bulbs or troubleshooting failing tubes.
  • Cleaner fixture performance: Removing old fluorescent components can eliminate flickering, humming, and delayed startup.
  • Updated look: LED retrofit services give older fixtures a more modern feel without always requiring full fixture replacement.

Not every lighting problem calls for a full new installation, and that matters if you’re trying to control costs. A licensed electrician can inspect the fixture housing, wiring, switch compatibility, and load demands to determine if a retrofit is the smart fix or if replacement makes more sense.

Called in the morning because my AC wasn't working and someone was at my house by 3pm. Thank you for the fast service. Within minutes of arriving Jose had diagnosed the problem and got me back up and running. He took the time to explain everything to me. A great experience and thanks to my neighbor for the referral!

Sha'nya was the most professional and knowledgeable technician I have ever had. Everything was explained clearly and my AC problem was resolved quickly. I have worked with other companies and technicians in the past and my questions were never answered completely. This was a totally different experience for me. I will be using Watts going forward for all my AC needs. Thanks again Sha'nya!

Mr Jose' Rodriquez made a service call to our residence August 19, 2026. He serviced the unit in the attic and vacuumed it. I must point out that this was the second time this has ever been done. First time, it was Jose' ***** on his first visit about 6 years ago.. He checked the electrical box, and checked and cleaned the unit outside thoroughly as well. He also took photos of the unit in the attic as well as the outside unit and shared them with me. The unit is running great and the air smells fresh and clean. I was really impressed with Jose's thoroughness, work attitude and his politeness. Thank you Jose' for a job well done. You are an exemplary H-Vac technician and an asset to Watts Air Conditioning,Electric and Plumbing. Keep up the good work.

I called Watts late morning because my I received a message from my Ecobee thermostat (which went blank) indicating that there was a problem with my cooling system which is causing my thermostat to frequently reboot which may be due to my cooling unit not draining. By early afternoon tech Sha'nya Brinson showed up. I explained the problem and instantly she had an idea of what was wrong. She inspected the unit and her instinct was correct. The evaporator coil plan was extremely clogged with bacterial growth. She cleaned out the drain pan and flushed and vacuumed condensate drain line. Also replaced the high voltage switch which was old and damaged. She explained everything to me in layman's terms. It was such a pleasure having her service the unit. She is extremely knowledgeable, very customer friendly and had a wonderful vibe. She is absolutely the best service tech I've had in the 6 years living in this home. Please pass this along to Sha'nya as she is the best of the best. Thanks Sha'nya.

Cyle (plumbing) and Jose (HVAC) are outstanding. No one else could figure out the moisture and sinking in our floors. These guys spent hours systematically going through- and under- the house and found the issue. Honest, knowledgeable, great with pets. Would definitely hire them again!
